The Indian government expects to issue its first green bonds at a 'greenium,' with yields below prevailing market rates, and has identified 400 billion rupees ($4.92 billion) in projects that can be funded with the proceeds, said two government sources.

The government plans to raise 160 billion rupees through green bonds for the current fiscal ending March 31, with the first tranche of 80 billion rupees scheduled for auction on Wednesday.

Nigeria to slow interest rate hikes before elections 

Nigeria’s central bank is poised to temper the pace of interest-rate increases after inflation unexpectedly slowed from a 17-year high in December, a sign that it may have peaked.

The first drop since November 2021 took the annual inflation rate to 21.3% and caused some economists to reconsider past predictions for an increase in borrowing costs. Others are forecasting that policymakers will significantly slow their most aggressive monetary tightening in 12 years, a month before Africa’s largest economy holds presidential elections.
